Cummins (CMI) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Cummins has demonstrated strong financial performance, with engine sales increasing by 5% to $3.151 billion and distribution sales rising by 9% to $2.829 billion, both surpassing analyst expectations. The company's overall sales reached $8.796 billion for the quarter, marking a 2% year-over-year growth and exceeding street estimates of $8.330 billion. Looking ahead, Cummins anticipates significant revenue growth in both Power Systems and Distribution for FY 2024, projecting revenues of approximately $6.0 billion and $11 billion at the midpoint, respectively, underscoring its competitive position despite industry challenges.
Bears say
Cummins's outlook remains negative due to a 3% year-over-year decline in demand for medium-duty and heavy-duty trucks in China, highlighting weak domestic diesel engine sales despite natural gas engine orders and strong exports. Additionally, the company's alternative power segment, Accelera, is expected to peak in investment during 2024, which is currently hindering overall profitability, coupled with a projected consolidated revenue growth decrease of 3% to flat for FY 2024. Furthermore, a 13% year-over-year drop in components sales and a slight contraction in adjusted EBITDA margin to 15.3% further indicate operational challenges, increasing the risk of missed earnings amid changing market dynamics.
